1985 Map of Excelsior Mts

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Excelsior Mountains and the arid expanse of the Great Basin define this mid-1980s terrain along the Nevada and California border. The map reveals a landscape heavily shaped by mineral extraction and military presence, anchored by the sprawling Hawthorne Ammunition Depot in the north and the deep-rooted mining history at the Borealis Mine and Silver Dyke Mine. Transport corridors follow the paths of the Southern Pacific railroad and historic routes like the Bodie-Aurora Road, which connected once-booming mining camps across the state line.
